Food-origin
Where this strain was first isolated, curated from the literature and culture-collection catalogs. It describes provenance only — not suitability, and not benefit.

Sequenced
Whether a public genome assembly is linked for this strain. Without one the genome screens cannot run. It is not a verdict on the organism.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a yeast species best known as baker's yeast and brewer's yeast, used in food and beverage production for thousands of years. Unlike the related probiotic yeast S. boulardii (classified by some as a subspecies), plain S. cerevisiae strains are not generally characterized as probiotics in the clinical sense and do not have a recognized probiotic evidence base. No strain-specific papers linked to this entry were identified in the research index; the species is relevant to microbiome research primarily as a food-associated microorganism and model organism, not as a documented probiotic supplement strain.
